Why is it that in so many cases, the moment a woman starts thriving, her partner becomes uncomfortable with her success?
I know we can agree that neither partner in a relationship should have to make themselves smaller to keep the relationship working.
Today, Alex is back on the podcast and we're chatting through what so many women are quietly experiencing but rarely talk about openly: what happens when a woman starts stepping into her full potential and the people around her struggle to keep up.
We're talking about ambition, marriage, success, insecurity, and why so many high-achieving women are told to dim their light in order to make other people comfortable.
We Chat About:
Alex shares his take on navigating marriage, building your individual dreams while growing together, and what it actually looks like to support your partner without losing yourself in the process.
And whew… there were a few moments in this chat that had both of us saying, "Why aren't we talking about this more?"
If you've ever questioned whether your ambition makes you "too much"… if you've ever been told to play small, dim your light, or lower your standards… if you're trying to build relationships that can grow alongside your success instead of being threatened by it… this episode is for you.
